I love using Powerpoint and my students have expressed their appreciation of it as a tool for review and for learning in the classroom. I use engrade and attach my Powerpoint to the lesson for the day. Students may then look at the Powerpoint to review for a class exam. Exam grades have gone up and I have noticed more higher order thinking skills being used in the classroom.
While they still will take notes in class it's a great way to refresh your memory from your lecture (much like recording it). In addition, if you use some excellent images/audio/video to enhance your PP students are able to retain information even better. It also does well for students who have been absent (especially out for several classes due to illness) providing information so they don't feel so out of the loop.
Anybody else have some similar experiences using PP has a review tool?
